Later that day, a blizzard hits and Tom's grandfather is injured in an accident. With the phone lines dead, Tom must take his horse and ride for help-- by himself-- through the panther's territory. Can he reach safety in time to save his grandfather before the panther strikes one more time? AUTHOR: Bill Wallace
